Artist Appreciation + Film Screening 
CIGARRA & Guerreiras Nessa Arte Performance

In May of this year, we staged one of our biggest shows ever at San Francisco’s Z SPACE. CIGARRA & Guerreiras Nessa Arte shared Mestra Cigarra’s pathbreaking ascent through capoeira’s male-dominated ranks, and the stories of those who’ve inherited her legacy. The ABADÁ-Capoeira San Francisco Performance Company, along with top artists who flew in from Brazil just for the event, embodied Mestra’s lineage through capoeira and the traditional music and dances of maculelê, jongo, and samba de roda. Award-winning local filmmaker Claudia Escobar weaved audio and film into the show’s choreography.

If you missed the performance, or just want to celebrate with us as we watch it in film, come join us at our school on July 27 and bring a dish to share!
